    • Optimization of Swirl Brake Design and Assessment of Its Stabilizing Effect on Compressor Rotordynamic Performance 
      Baldassarre, Leonardo; Bernocchi, Andrea; Fontana, Michele; Guglielmo, Alberto; Masi, Guido (Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 2014)
      The rotordynamic stability of high pressure compressors is strongly affected by the aerodynamic effects induced by the gas flow through rotor-stator seals. In particular the tangential velocity (swirl) of the gas flowing ...
    • TT05 - Dry Gas Seal Failure Simulation Methodology 
      Casali, Laurence; Bartolini, Francesco; Calosi, Mirco; Bisio, Valentina; Masi, Guido (Turbomachinery Laboratory, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries, [2019])
      The failure of dry gas seals is a critical event in Oil & Gas industry that if not correctly managed can lead to uncontrolled gas release to atmosphere. It is important to properly estimate the potential risks due to the ...
